That's what I understood the attorney for the Supervisor to say at the hearing. The sunshine law requires 24 hours notice, so they did this yesterday. And the judge said nothing in his ruling binds them, or affects them at all.

PLUS! A contest proceeding would cover the entire District- bringing the “irregularities” in Palm Beach to light also.

West needs a better lawyer- twice now he has tried an end around on the law, and been shot down. Maybe he isn't old enough to remember the 1500+ election 2000 hearings, but he should actually read the case law, and not embarrass his client. Cherry picking counties for a recount, and trying to stop the certification process is just what Gore tried- and FAILED at every level! If his big name NY Lawyer knew anything about Florida law, the outcome might have been different. Although a contest proceeding statewide might have forced inclusion of the 1500+ military ballots Gore got rejected. Instead they pulled this same nonsense for 37 days, and ran out the clock.
